Project description:In present study, it was found that the co-culture of Wickerhamomyces anomalus Y-5 and L. plantarum RX-8 could enhance bacteriocin production. To analyze the interaction between W. anomalus Y-5 and L. plantarum RX-8, a quantitative proteomic approach was used to analyze and compare the proteome in L. plantarum RX-8 and W. anomalus Y-5 under mono-culture and co-culture. In total, 339 differently expressed proteins (DEPs) were screened in comparison of L. plantarum RX-8 under mono-culture and co-culture, 645 proteins of W. anomalus Y-5 changed in mono-culture and co-culture. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis indicated that DEPs participated in various metabolic pathways such as PTS system, glycolysis, galactose metabolism, glutamate, aspartate, arginine and cysteine metabolism etc. These pathways were related to inducing mechanism on improving bacteriocin production by co-culture. Quantitative proteomic analysis-based strategies can therefore provide further evidence for new regulated targets to improve the production of bacteriocins.
Project description:We report the application of next-generation sequencing technology for analyzing the differentially expressed genes of pears after treated with or without W. anomalus. After analyzing the differentially expressed genes, we selected some important genes related to the resistance of pears to do RT-qPCR.
